Jonathan Cancer Fund, Inc.

A very special shout out to a very special group of humans! Thank you to all the peds hem/one nurses who do so much for our kids and families 💛

Happy Pediatric Hematology Oncology Nurses day! We appreciate you 🎗️

Childhood Cancer: Not rare. Not fair.

Thank you to Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for the HUGE impact they have!

It’ll change your life forever…
💛

There is so much more behind a childhood cancer diagnosis than what we see.

While we can’t fix everything, the Jonathan Cancer Fund is dedicated to taking some of the financial stress off of these incredible families while committing to raising awareness and providing as much emotional support as possible 💛

“Gold is a precious metal, and is therefore the perfect color to reflect the most precious thing in our lives—our children.”




🎗️

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month 🎗️ Join us as we raise awareness, stand by our families, and share the stories of some of our incredible children!

Join us on Sunday, September 29th at our largest annual fundraiser, the 46 Mile Ride for Childhood Cancer Awareness! You don’t have to ride to join in on the fun. We’ll have incredible raffles and a live DJ.

WE MOVED!

Our mailing address stayed the same and some of our greatest inspirations came along, as always, but our walls are looking empty and we’d love to continue our work surrounded by the reasons why we do what we do!

If you’ve been impacted by the JCF, please send us a picture of your child (or family!) to be displayed in our office! You can message us here or email photos to Katie at [email protected] 💛

To our Moms of fighters, Moms of survivors and angel Mamas,

Happy Mother’s Day 💐

Your battle is not unseen and the journey you walk is never alone 💛 we hope today surrounds you with peace, love and relaxation!

Our friends at Brian's Kids could use your support!

The event will feature live music, food, a cash bar, and some great raffle items.

For more information, please contact Deb at (315)565-9378.

Food Truck Battle: We're gearing up for the largest gathering of food trucks in CNY history to return to the NYS Fairgrounds on Saturday, May 13th!

Each year we partner with local charities to give back to the amazing community that supports the local food truck community and our events each and every year. This year we have decided to let our followers pick the local charity that we partner with.

Please nominate your favorite charity in the comments below! We will tally the nominations and allow the public to vote on the top 5 nominees next month.

Tickets go on sale on Monday, February 13th at 10am. Look for some really exciting announcements to drop at that same time. 😀

The JCF is proud to announce our 2022 Holiday Drive. Each year, this drive provides us with an opportunity to connect with our incredible little fighters and their families and remind them that we are always here for them!

In 2022 we're hoping to bring some COLOR to our incredible kids currently fighting cancer at Upstate Golisano Children's Hospital and Upstate Cancer Center.

We're collecting: coloring books, activity books, sticker by number books, Crayola crayons, markers, colored pencils, Play-doh and other art supplies!

You can host a drive at your business, shop and contact us about pick-up, or shop our Amazon Wish List and have your contributions sent right to one of our board members!

Today we want to give a HUGE thank you to Scott Teachout! His Charity Stream on Twitch yesterday raised $1,620. Every dollar raised will help support local families who are currently facing a pediatric cancer diagnosis. This wouldn’t have been possible without Scott and his Twitch community 💛

This Saturday is the day! Our friend, Scott Teachout, is hosting an all day streaming event on Twitch. The online event is in honor of Scott’s daughter, Brooke—an incredible, childhood cancer survivor! We are so grateful that Scott chose the Jonathan Cancer Fund as the beneficiary for his event. With his help, we will be able to continue our mission into 2021!
